Jeramie Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 I went out twice over the Christmas break. My brother and I went out on Christmas eve. We saw a TON of birds and had a lot fly in. My brother wasnt on his game, he shot several and only recovered one. I think he was using to tight of a choke. I ended up with 4 total and probably should have limited (at six). I switched to a full choke and it seemed to help greatly. I went out again Yesterday (Sunday) but didnt have anything come in. We had a serious snow storm that dumped anywhere from 8" - 11.5" of snow in our area. Most water ways are frozen over and the birds are sticking to the river which is very close by. It was cold but I did watch the sun come up, sitting on a little island, while drinking Coffee in about 10" of snow. I also have 4 bald eagles flying around all morning looking for something to eat. I never got a shot off on a bird but it was still a great morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeramie Posted December 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 Dang Jemamie...you got the raw end of the deal. You should give the waders to your brother and make him do the fetching! Youre telling me! We hunted on a little island and I had to drag his butt out there in a flat bottom and then go pull the boat out of the water. I told him to buy a set of waders or he could stay home... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
